Specyfika podmiotowości prawnej Stolicy Apostolskiej – zarys problematyki

Abstract

The Holy See (Sancta Sedes) is the specific subject of the international law. The acknowledgement of the legal subjectivity is related to the possession of the legal capacity and the capability of the legal international proceedings. The Holy See is treated as an autonomous subject which has its own rights and obligations concerning the international affairs. It has right to send and receive the minister residents (ius legationis), to enter into the international contracts (ius tractandi), to participate in the conferences and to be member of the international organizations (ius foederum).
